in the 1930's female cigarette purchases fell dramatically, it was seen as disgusting and a social taboo for a woman to smoke. the tobacco companies wanted females to re enter the market as woman were half their market before it became socially unacceptable. so they contacted Sigmund Freud's nephew Edward Bernays, who was a war time propagandist and psychoanalyst, asking him to make smoking socially acceptable for woman. Bernay's consulted his uncle Freud and concocted a propaganda scheme to increase cigarette sales in woman. Bernay's paid feminist woman to light up cigarettes during the NYC Easter parade, at a cue they lit up the cigarettes during the highlight of the parade and were photographed by photographers also payed by Bernays. He then spread the word on "the torches of freedom" leaking to several reporters that the women in the parade were smoking as a sign of feminist protest. the photos and false stories were spread all across the news, cigarettes became the symbol of woman's liberation and female cigarette purchases skyrocketed.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Bernayshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torches_of_Freedomit is now a part of the public subconscious, if you want to have a woman look tough and independent then give her a cigarette. tobacco companies use guerilla marketing tactics like this to make cigarettes the symbol of rebellion, independence and freedom. these companies have spent billions on their social engineering efforts, just because you don't see advertisements of talking camels anymore doesn't mean you aren't effected.
